Vintage Reuge Sainte-Croix Wind Up Wood Music Box Switzerland

Vintage Reuge Sainte-Croix Wind Up Wood Music Box Switzerland. This Footed Wooden Music Box with 36-note Cylinder movement was a gift from my husband for our Wooden Anniversary in 1973. Cylinder music box: These music boxes use a rotating cylinder with pins that pluck the teeth of a steel comb to create a melody. They were the first type of music box and were popular from the late 18th to late 19th century.
